Yes, we Russians are entirely responsible for British carpet bombing. (I, of course, do not agree with the decision to demolish the remaining ruins in 1968; it could have been hand…

Why lie? It _is_ a tourist location, with > 2mln tourists annually (for their 1 mln permanent population). It also has quite a diverse economy, with Avtotor being a major car assem…

LAMY 2000 and Platinum Preppy/Pilot V-pen are not the same kind of product. To be honest, the disposables are not excellent at all. However, the difference in writing feel, line qu…

"operationally" implies that capex (which I would assume includes datacenters, gpus, and r&d) is not in. So the big news is that they can now pay for electricity and sysadmin.

There's a clear intent for EU entities to switch to "sovereign" tech. That means that there's a lot of money on the table. Hence the "EuroOffice" rebadge, and this unpleasantness.

Shortcuts still don't work on non-Latin keyboard layouts on Linux. For people who use languages with non-Latin writing systems, this is a show-stopper. (there is, of course, a rich…

Tailscale somehow found use for self-hosters, despite being wildly unergonomic for an all-Linux, non-corporate, network. Yggdrasil lacks marketing effort, but is otherwise a great …
